Peoples expectation for "working" is "has absolutely all features that you would have with google, no exceptions". If even a single feature is missing, people will scream thats its unusable.
The problem starts when a government service or your bank requires an app that needs play services/ uses play integrity API.
On GrapheneOS in Austria I've yet to encounter this problem, fortunately. I can't use Authy because they're dipshits, but the government apps just show an (annoying) warning every time I use them.
I also can't pay with my phone anymore because Google is a dipshit as well. Fuck Google. Only thing I need them for these days is YouTube.
Authy just provides 2FA ,no?
How about migrating to Aegis? It's FOSS, allows encrypted storage, allows backing up and restoring so you never have to lose access to accounts, either (talking about Google Authenticator here)
